Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for fixing any instrument on a weapon, for example a pointer, a sight or the like.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a simple device making it possible to quickly and safely mount any instrument on a weapon, for example a handgun or long gun, and in addition to propose a device easily adaptable to any model. weapon.
  • FIG. 1 shows the mounting support placed and fixed on a weapon seen from the front, the support carrying a miniature laser pointer.
  • Figure 2 shows the mounting bracket of Figure 1 placed on the weapon but not yet attached to it.
  • Figure 3 is a side view of the mounting bracket shown in Figure 1.
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to that of Figure 3 but with the clamping lever in the raised position.
  • FIG. 1 shows the device carrying for example a laser pointer 20, the device being fixed on a weapon whose outline, seen from the front, is represented by way of example by the dotted line noted 21. It is understood that the device according to the invention is suitable for fixing to any model of weapon, whatever its outline.
  • Figure 2 shows the device in place on a weapon but not yet attached to it.
  • the device 10 comprises a body 1 having a curved bearing surface 2 to adapt to the top of a weapon. At a lateral end of the curved surface 2, the body 1 has an edge or a hooking surface 3 intended to cooperate with the surface of the weapon on which the body 1 is to be fixed, on one side of this weapon.
  • a movable arm 4 This is mounted on two pivots 5 fixed to the support 1. As shown more particularly in FIGS. 3 and 4, the pivots 5 are fixed to the body 1 to the interior of a recess or a cutout 11 formed in the body and in this recess is partially housed the upper part of the movable arm 4.
  • the pivots 5 define a pivot axis for the arm 4.
  • the device When the device is placed on a weapon ( Figure 2), the arm 4 hangs freely around its pivots 5 and its lower part is released from the weapon.
  • the device according to the invention comprises a clamping and locking means intended to exert and maintain pressure on the movable arm 4
  • this locking means consists of a lever 6 mounted around a pivot 7 fixed to the upper end of the movable arm 4.
  • the lever 6 is formed with an element in projection or pressure heel 8 (visible in the cutaway portion of FIG. 1) shaped to cooperate with a pressure surface 9 formed on the body 1 when the lever 6 is in the clamping position.
  • the pressure heel 8 and the pressure surface 9 are profiled, according to the invention, so that when the locking lever 6 is lowered towards the weapon, over the movable arm 4, the pressure surface 9 exerts on the heel 8 a pressure which carries the lever 6 to pivot in order to exert in turn and maintain pressure on the arm 4, and in particular on the lower part of the arm, so as to maintain the arm 4 in close contact with the 'armed.
  • the pressure surface 9 is made accessible to the pressure heel 8 by means of a cutout 16 made in the arm 4. This cutout is visible in particular in FIG. 4 which shows the device with the lever lock 6 in the raised position.
  • the device according to the invention can be fixed on a weapon in a very simple way.
  • the body 1 of the device When the body 1 of the device is placed on the weapon, it suffices to pivot the locking lever 6 towards the weapon in order to tighten the arm 4 against the weapon.
  • the support 10 is thus rigidly fixed on the weapon by tightening and gripping under tension of its two lateral ends on the opposite sides of the weapon.
  • the movable lateral arm 4 advantageously has a width which gives it an appreciable contact surface with the surface of the weapon on which the support is mounted.
  • the clamping pressure exerted by the locking lever 6 on the arm 4 is maintained constantly thanks to the profile of the heel 8 which is preferably given the shape of a nose oriented upwards so that any tendency of the lever 6 to pivot away from the weapon from the angular locking position ( Figure 1) meets and causes an increase in the pressure exerted by the pressure surface 9.
  • any tendency of the arm 4 to move away from the The weapon and to disengage from the firm clamping position is automatically counteracted by an increase in pressure and a strengthening of the clamping.
  • the arrangement according to the invention has the advantage of ensuring the pressure, clamping and locking functions in a single operation and a single operation. In addition, this arrangement still has the advantage of being able to adapt to different models of weapon with perfect security of attachment. Finally, this arrangement is simple and robust because it does not use any spring member.
  • the body 1 has externally a trapezoidal groove 12 for fixing a laser pointer 20 for example in an angular position offset from the vertical axial plane of the weapon 21, which makes it possible to leave the aiming axis of the weapon free (the aiming axis is located in the vertical axial plane).
  • a control lever 13 which pivots about an axis 14 extending parallel to the axis of the pointer 20. The lever 13 is used to actuate a contactor (not shown) for placing under voltage of the laser cell to produce a laser beam.
  • the lever 13 has a curved shape to be placed on the side of the weapon 21 so that it can be actuated with one hand and at the same time as the trigger of the weapon.
  • the lever 13 can be blocked by a latch 15 in order to avoid an undesirable ignition of the laser cell.
